You're a history teacher and need to create a curriculum for 4 years.How would you make it? Which periods or regions would you focus on? What books or primary sources would you use as essential reads?Keep in mind, that your curriculum needs to cover the period from prehistory to end of Cold War.

>>6623020>>6623099Year 1: Bronze Age - antiquity (focus on Hellenic / Roman influence on the modern world in comparison with the eastern empires)Year 2: fall of Rome - Enlightenment Year 3: rise of Liberalism/nationalism and European hegemonyYear 4: fall of the European hegemony - 2000s

>>6623020Only teach history relevant to my country which if Britain. If you want to know about ancient Greeks go fuck yourself. We would start with education on only the roman section of Britain then from then on the earliest british kingdoms all the way to the british empire.

>>6623664It might be if not for David fucking Irving. Read some pro German shit, hell go full Bismarck if you want. There's a lot to unpack there. But that hack is to history, even German history what Joseph Smith was to Christianity. Nothing short of a fully blown charlatan who doesn't deserve discussion.

At the moment we're doing on the Normans and the Cold War as intense case studies, pretty good still. British schools have lowkey moved on from multiculti shit without making a big deal of it. the year 7/8/9 classes are fun because I have relative freedom for those, doing the English civil war is a lot of fun

>>6624233The Islamic Dark Era is the Era when the diversity of human thought was systemically destroyed by Islamic mauraders who sniffed out countless faiths, slaughter India, infected steppe nomads with Islam, created the stagnant hell of the Ottoman Empire and the brief golden age they had being abandoned by Al-Ghazali almost immeadiately.

>>6624239Also including the Islam influenced Spain and how their mentality was inherited from Islamic thinkers from Al-Andalus. The savagery of Spanish conquistadors draws a very direct line to Islamic teachings when they applied Jihad to Christianity.

>>6624421Also missing the Islamic Dark Era and how Britain ended it only to bring it back to ensure the collapse of the EU in the unholy alliance Blair made with Bush to destroy Continnetial Europe with the worst WMD of all- Muslim women and children.

>>6623020Year 1- 1 month on prehistory- 3 months on classical Greece/rome- 3 months on Persia/India- 3 months on China- 2 months on Mongols- 1 day on amerindians, mostly to point out how they couldnt use wheels

Year 2- 6 months on the byzantine empire/HRE/crusades- 3 months on English hx- 3 months on French hx

Year 3- 3 months on Renaissance and Enlightenment- 3 months on American Revolution- 6 months on the French Revolution/Republic/Napoleon

>>6625077>OP said the curriculum had to cover prehistory to cold war. Being literate, I followed the instructions.

OP said "NEEDS to cover", not "MUST BE LIMITED TO". He never said you couldn't go beyond the requirements. You just want to do the bare minimum. Teachers like you are why we are so mediocre these days.

>>6625666You are assuming a lot here. You could also cover random bullshit that has nothing to do with history based on your premise. Maybe the administration told him those parameters as they have a different plan to cover the other material. Teacher like you like to complain about regulation and how limited they are but the truth is they cant get their kids to pass the most basic standardized test because they suck in the first place. Probably because they are so creative that they cant follow directions themselves.
